Genes affected

CFTR (HGNC:1884): (CF transmembrane conductance regulator) This gene encodes a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. The encoded protein functions as a chloride channel, making it unique among members of this protein family, and controls ion and water secretion and absorption in epithelial tissues. Channel activation is mediated by cycles of regulatory domain phosphorylation, ATP-binding by the nucleotide-binding domains, and ATP hydrolysis. Mutations in this gene cause cystic fibrosis, the most common lethal genetic disorder in populations of Northern European descent. The most frequently occurring mutation in cystic fibrosis, DeltaF508, results in impaired folding and trafficking of the encoded protein. Multiple pseudogenes have been identified in the human genome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Nov 25, 2023	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 23 of the CFTR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with CFTR-related conditions (PMID: 1284639, 19318346, 23974870, 26348465, 28603918). This variant is also known as 4005+1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7160). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The CFTR c.3873+1G>A variant (rs143570767), also known as c.4005+1G>A in traditional nomenclature, is reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state with other pathogenic variants in individuals affected with cystic fibrosis (Beauchamp 2019, Raraigh 2022, Sosnay 2013). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 7160) and is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant disrupts the canonical splice donor site of intron 23, which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.
